I know people in all years of it at the mo.


Hours each year vary from 16-19 at the most.

Some semesters they had Fridays off, other semesters they didn't.

With it just being a 3 year course there is actually only 2 full years of lectures as 2 semesters are used for work placement. (1st semester of 2nd year and 2nd semester of 3rd year as far as I can remember.)

They got through 1st ear pretty easily but as they years go on work does get tougher, but to be honest that is expected from any course. They all love their respective Work Placement, some working with children and some with adults.

At the moment the 3rd years on placement have a thesis to do which they all find though but have had months to do it, so again it isn't like you'll be bogged down with work at any stage.

Go for the course if you think you'll like it.
